A DOUBTFUL RECoMMEEDATIoN-
The following story Of Southern poll
tics was picked up by Ex-Governor
Van Zandt, Of Rhode Island. at
Townsville. Ca, where he had been
spending tae winter. A politician
who was running for Office desired 10
secure the negro vote, and had bought
up a colored preacher, who agreed for
Sl5 to make an address to his congre.
CATION in favor Of the candidate. The
politician said to the clergyman: i
think the best way for you TO influence
your people is to let them understand
that am neither a Democrat nor Re-
publican, but an Old Line Wing. 1t
is best to break up the feeling that
exists between Democrats and Repub-
licans and start out on the new line,
and this is just az good time as any to
do it, When the clergyman got up
in his pulpit and began talking to his
audience he followed the advice of the
politician in this manner: MY dear
bredren, you are not to pronounce
upon Massa Blank for de sins OF omis-
sion or commission by eder de Demo
cratic or Republican party. Massa
Blank am neder Democrat or Repub-
lican. He is simply lynn old Wing

tore his hair.-Neac York Tribune.

name upon blank slip of paper and
allowed it to lie on his desk. 1t at
tracted the attention of a neighbor,
whe, for joke, filled the space above

the joking neighbor presented the
paper, with an offer to allow consider
able discount if the apparent drawer
would cash it at the time. The gentle

Of the document, placing it in his

holder was stricken with paralysis and
died, and his executors, finding the
note and having no knowledge Of the
joke attached to it, brought suit and
recovered the sum for which it was
drawn.
